Ahead of India’s tour Down Under later this year, Australian quick Pat Cummins has praised skipper Virat Kohli as a “really passionate” player while conceding that his bowling attack will target the “prized” wicket of the right-hander.

Former captain Ricky Ponting will join the Australia cricket team coaching staff, headed by Justin Langer, in England where the visitors will play five One-Day Internationals (ODIs) and a single Twenty20 International (T20I) against the hosts over the next few weeks.

India’s MS Dhoni on Friday completed 600 catches as a wicket-keeper in his career across all formats. Hashim Amla became his 600th victim. Dhoni became the third wicket-keeper in the world to achieve the feat and is only behind Mark Boucher and Adam Gilchrist. Let us have a look at top five wicket-keepers with most catches in an international career.

Indian cricket legend Sachin Tendulkar has extended his support to Australian trio Steve Smith, David Warner and Cameron Bancroft after all of them apologised and accepted punishments handed out to them by Cricket Australia for their roles in the ball-tampering saga.

Australian players want David Warner to be removed from the team hotel after he was seen partying with friends despite so many controversies and players want to avoid any scuffle after ball-tampering scandal.

Cricket is recognised as the game which is dominated by the batsman but if one looks closely at it then one knows that the cricket is the game of fine bowling and outstanding batting. There are some instances where this cricket game is dominated by the bowlers.

Consistency is most important part of any game. Cricket is no different. A batsman is mostly judged by the runs they make or the centuries they have to their name. The greatness of any batsmen for sure is defined by the number of centuries he has scored or the match-winning innings he has played. Here are players with the most number of international tons to their name.

A young Auckland university student Mitchell Grimstone, who was in the crowd during the T20I match between New Zealand and Australia is richer by $50,000 after he took a brilliant catch in the stands during the match.

Cricket in today’s time has become a batsmen’s game. And with T20s around bowlers have just nowhere left to hide. Hitting sixes in today’s time is no big deal and batsmen are not afraid of taking an aerial risk anymore. So, who are those players who have hit the maximum number of sixes in T20I cricket?

There is a famous saying that records are meant to be broken. But when we look at these cricketing records one has to think will these records be ever broken. Let us have a look at some records which will be very tough to be broken.

Great achievements to rare records and sheer coincidence. Some amazing records that will blow your mind. Cricket is on the of the most popular sport around and you might call yourself an ardent cricket fan but how many of these facts do you know? Sportswallah provides you some of the lesser-known facts.

Virat Kohli hit a windfall at the ICC awards after being named both cricketer and captain of the year. He also regained a trophy he had won for the first time in 2012 as he was named ODI player of the year as well.

Andrew Tye opened up on various topics, such as Perth Scorchers chances of defending the title, his obsession with ‘knuckle ball’, being a go-to death bowler in T20s, his story from pitch curator to cricketer, role played by Justin Langer in his career, etc.

Cricket Australia chief James Sutherland has given a deadline to the Australian players, who currently are free agents, having rejected new contracts. He has called upon the Australian Cricketers’ Association (ACA) to have an intense negotiation over the next week and if a conclusion isn’t agreed upon, the board is ready to leave the decision to an independent arbitration.

Sutherland told cricket.com.au, “I’ve been involved in the negotiations over the last month and while there’s been some progress in that time, I’ve had some increasing concerns about whether everyone is going at the same pace and dealing with this issue with the same level of urgency.”

Australia’s most successful captain Ricky Ponting is the latest entrant in the list of players to reveal their all-time XI. In a video by Lord’s Cricket Ground’s official YouTube channel, Cook talks through his all-time XI, which includes many legends of the game and some interesting names as well with only one Indian.

The top order of Ponting’s team starts with two Australian openers and one of the most successful opening pair of all-time xi — Matthew Hayden and Justin Langer. “Two guys I really enjoyed batting behind. Two different batting styles. If you like Matthew Hayden that big and tore the crease always on the front foot. Always putting pressure back on the bowlers. And then his little mate Justin Langer at the other end who is one of my greatest mates from my playing times,” opines Ponting.

Australia batsman Chris Lynn has been ruled out for the entire summer as he will have a surgery on his injured shoulder. Lynn’s shoulder has given him lot of trouble in the past, which also forced him to miss a chunk of the IPL 2017 for Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR). As a result, Lynn will not take part in this edition of the CPL as well.

“I have been battling through each tournament and umming and arr-ing at training but the time has come to get it done,” Lynn told The Courier Mail.

“I was getting sorer and sorer after training. I am pretty confident I will be back for the Big Bash. “I will cost myself a bit but physically and mentally it will mean a lot to get it done,” he added.

The stand off between the Australian cricketers and Cricket Australia (CA) has taken a new twist. The Australian players have not been contracted with the CA since July 1. This led to Australia A players pulling out from their tour of South Africa. Australian team’s future tours to Bangladesh and The Ashes also seems to be in jeopardy. Amidst all this, the Australia Cricketers’ Association (ACA) has sent its commercial manager Tim Cruickshank to explore commercial opportunities for the players, who are currently not contracted with CA.

Talking about this Cruickshank said, “The main reason for my trip is to have a few meetings, because as of July 1, when the players came off contract, the majority of the Australian cricketers have signed their intellectual property over to the ACA, and that’s been managed by the cricketer’s brand wing of ACA. So, that creates obviously a number of commercial opportunities for the ACA and for the players. And obviously, they’re currently unemployed. So, we’re going to have a look at the additional revenue streams that can come to the ACA and the players,” according to cricbuzz.

As the league stage of ICC Women’s World Cup 2017 is completed, the four semi-finalists has been decided with that. The four teams in semis are England, South Africa, Australia and India. It was decided after the result of the match between India and New Zealand at Derby. India thrashed New Zealand by a huge-margin of 186 runs and ensured their berth in semis. Besides this match, there were two other matches also took place on the same day.

Australia were playing South Africa and Pakistan clashed againt Sri Lanka. However, both the matches were dead rubber as Sri Lanka, Pakistan were nowhere in the race of qualifying to semis. On the other hand, South Africa had already booked their place in semis despite defeat from Australia with solid net run-rate. Had South Africa won against Australia in their last league match, then the scenario’s could have been different. Had they won, they would have moved to 2nd spot and had to face Australia, while India to face England then.

Papua New Guinea (PNG) have announced former Australia fast bowler Jasin Gillespie as their interim head coach. This moves comes after Dipak Patel exits the fold and also made in a bid to push for ICC World Cup 2019 qualifications.

Gillespie was recently named coach of Australia A. But due to the pay dispute, the Australia A players have refused to tour South Africa, where they were scheduled to play a tri-nation series against the hosts and India A. Gillespie is however delighted about getting this opportunity. “I’m really excited about it, as much to have another cricketing experience with another team and another country. It broadens my experiences and broadens my learning and hopefully it will hold me in good stead going forward. I’ll be interested to see firsthand how these guys go,” Gillespie said according to cricket.com.au.

Meg Lanning’s another brilliant knock of 76 off 88 in chase takes Australia home against India in the 23rd match of ICC Women’s World Cup 2017 by 8 wickets with 29 balls spare. Chasing decent total of 227, Australia’s chase crafted by openers first — Nicole Bolton and Beth Mooney and then Lanning and Ellysse Perry. With this win, Australia ensures their place in semis. Indian bowlers looked hapless as they were getting hammered easily by Australian batters all around the County Ground Bristol. Poonam Yadav was the only wicket-takers from India camp.

Australian openers Bolton and Mooney started off their chase by gifting back to back maidens to Jhulan and Deepti Sharma. But after first two overs, the duo began countering Indian bowlers and made them desperate for wickets. The duo added 62 runs for opening stand as Bolton departed for 36 off 48. Bolton’s wicket was inflicted by Poonam Yadav.

Hello and welcome to live score and updates of match 23 of ICC Women’s World Cup 2017 between India and Australia at County Ground Bristol. Both the teams are coming from a defeat. India lost to South Africa in their last match, while Australia were beaten by England. India and Australia both have won 4 matches each in this tournament so far with a defeat each as well. Meg Lanning-led Australia are known to be one of the most ruthless side in the tournamnet, while Mithali Raj captained India has been facing batting issues at the top order.

A total of 10 encounters have happened between India and Australia in World Cup matches. Australia holds the upper hand by winning 8 out of them and losing only two. India’s both the wins in World Cup against Australia came in 2009 edition. This will be one of the most highly intense clash in the tournament as both India and Australia shares an interesting rivalry despite the domination by Southern Stars.

Born on July 9, 1983, cricket was already Shaun Marsh’s blood. A graceful left-handed batsman and on his day could trouble any opposition, anywhere in the world. On his 34thbirthday, let us take a look at some interesting facts about the Australian.

Family of sportsmen: Marsh’s father Geoff represented Australia in 50 Tests and 117 One-Day Internationals (ODI) between 1985 to 1992. Geoff then took up a coaching role in 1996 with the Australian team. Australia won their second World Cup in 1999 under Geoff’s tutelage. Shaun’s younger brother Mitchell too has represented Australia in all formats. Their sister Melissa is a former Women’s National Basketball League (WNBL) player.

Steve Smith in a well-written Instagram post, has come out scathing against Cricket Australia for the ongoing pay dispute with the ACA (Australian Cricket Association). All the contracted Australian players, (male and female) as of July 1st, 2017 are currently unemployed with both the parties, that is Cricket Australia and ACA not being able to come to an MOU, where the ACA is demanding more profitability across all players, right from female cricketers to low-grade state players.

The ongoing tussle between Cricket Australia and Australian Cricketers Association has led to the cancellation of Australia A tour to South Africa. The Australian Cricketers Association (ACA) announced that no player is ready to go on the tour due to the no new Memorandum of Understanding which the players demanded.

“It is with great frustration that with no progress towards resolving the current dispute, Australia A players confirm they will not tour South Africa,” the ACA statement says.

The statement further says:

“It is with great frustration that with no progress towards resolving the current dispute, Australia A players confirm they will not tour South Africa. This decision is made in support of more than 200 male and female players who are now unemployed and is consistent with Sunday’s ACA Executive meeting resolutions. By making this call, the Australia A players have sacrificed their own ambitions for the collective; an incredibly selfless act that shows their strength and overall commitment to the group. All players are deeply disappointed at the behaviour of CA which forces this course of action, given the players would rather be playing for their country.

India’s ace spinner Ravichandran Ashwin is known for two major things. One is his magical spin bowling, through which he has trapped many big players and the other is his epic statements, be it on the field or off the field. Ashwin is very often said to have one of the most intelligent minds among the current Indian cricketers and he has been seen giving fitting answers to his opponnent when needed.

One such interesting incident happened during the Border-Gavaskar Trophy of 2014-15 in Australia. During the 4th Test at Sydney Cricket Ground (SCG), Ashwin got involved in a verbal spat with Australian wicketkeeper Brad Haddin and then David Warner. As expected, it was started by Haddin.

The ongoing feud between Cricket Australia and Australian Cricket Association has landed the Aussie players unemployed. Captain Steve Smith is holidaying in USA with his fiancee, while the other cricketers of the team are busy finding other employment options.

After quite a long period of tussle between Cricket Australia and Australian Cricketers Association, the final verdict came just before the deadline date. As per the latest update, there is no further deal between CA and ACA and players are unemployed.

On June 30, 2017, as per the final verdict over the tussle between Cricket Australia (CA) and Australian Cricketers Association (ACA), almost 230 Australian cricketers became unemployed. Reacting to this, Australia’s vice-captain David Warner burst out his emotions on social media and feels he was wrong about considering his workplace as family.

The news of no deal between CA and ACA has also put Australia’s tour of India in October for ODI series may get scrapped unless there is any breakthrough between both the sides. CA acknowledged that a new Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) will not be agreed before July 1 and continues to repeat their call for ACA to come to the negotiation table.

After quite a long period of tussle between Cricket Australia and Australian Cricketers Association, the final verdict has come just before the deadline date. As per the latest update, there will be no deal further betwen CA and ACA and players are set to be unemployed as of midnight.

CA acknowledged that a new Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) will not be agreed before July 1 and continues to repeat their call for ACA to come to the negotiation table. Currently, CA is disappointed with ACA’s step but surely the disappointment will be seen more among the fans.

Australian legend Shane Warne has uploaded a photo of himself wearing an England ODI jersey after losing a bet to former Indian captain Sourav Ganguly. During the ICC Champions Trophy encounter between the two rivals Australia and England, Shane Warne had opined that Australia will win the match and go through in the finals. Sourav Ganguly on the other hand, reckoned that England will win the match and would knock Australia out of the tournament. Sourav Ganguly turned out to be right in his prediction and England indeed knocked Australia out in a rain-curtailed encounter.

After the match, Shane Warne immediately conceded defeat on his Twitter account:

Cricket Australia in their media release has announced their 13-man squad for the tour to Bangladesh. Noticeable emissions are Mitchell Starc, who’s been rested keeping the ODI series against India and the Ashes in mind. Speaking on Starc, Bupa Support Team Physiotherapist David Beakely said “Mitchell was due to go for follow up scans after the Champions Trophy, as part of his recovery plan. These scans have indicated his previous stress fracture has still not fully healed to the extent we would like. He will now undertake a period of rest from bowling with the aim to have him return for the one-day series in India in late September as he begins his build-up to the Ashes.”

In what was a virtual quarter-final for Australia, the Kangaroos failed to live upto the billing and have been knocked out of the ICC Champions Trophy after being outclassed by England in every department. Winning the toss first, England skipper Eoin Morgan decided to chase down the target and the decision worked wonders for the 30-year-old.

England, who have already booked their place in the semi-final, had a good start as Mark Wood got the better of David Warner early in the game. However, a stable partnership between Aaron Finch and Steve Smith anchored a decent score for the Aussies before the former being the unfortunate enough to rush back to the pavilion. Moises Henrique soon followed Finch along with captain Steve Smith and this is when their middle order collapsed.

Courtesy to a brilliant inning from Travis Head, Australia lodged a decent score of 277 runs, with Head banging a whopping 64-ball 71.

Australia set up a competitive score of 278 runs for the home side in what was a tensed inning for the Aussies. The visiting side lost David Warner early in the game, but both Finch and Smith anchored the innings, forming a respective partnership. Some back to back wickets cost the Kangaroos as their middle order failed to speak anything positive with the bat.

The score could have been quite less had it not been for Travis Head. The 23-year-old left-handed batsman steered his side well and stayed on track for the entirety of the inning, scoring a massive 64-ball 71. For England, the likes of Mark Wook and Adil Rashid proved out to be the clincher as both notched up four wickets, giving away only 33 and 41 runs in their allotted 10 overs respectively.

Intel company has been revolutionising TV viewership in the ICC Champions Trophy with their latest advancement in technology by bringing in BatSense technology. Batsense is basically a small device that sits on top of the handle of the bat which can then measure, that of including bat speed, back lift angle, bat speed impact, follow-through angle and impact angle.

The preliminary era of the famed and over-hyped Indian Premier League has always been a major talking point. And for the right reasons; a lot is put on stake, expectations are seen flying, and well… Money, yeah. While the others were discussing as to who will be the favourites to lift the trophy or who will be standout performer of the tournament, I was stuck to the dilemma of which team to support.

Being a not-so-ardent Cricket supporter, this certainly was the best question in my mind. It has been a long time since I’ve followed Cricket like anything and to add further to it, I don’t even remember the last time I picked up a bat or ball or anything. The question raising into my mind (which team to support in IPL) should have been a difficult one, but it was an easy choice than I’d have ever thought. Was I following the herd and supporting the Virat Kohli-led Royal Challengers Banglore? NO. Then was I being a ‘patriotic’ fan and decided to wear a KKR shirt? NO, again.

Australian batsman David Warner said that all the Australian players are ready to get unemployed if Cricket Australia did not do anything to sort the salary issues.

Speaking to Fairfax Media, he said, “If we are unemployed, we have no contracts, we can’t play. We are pretty sure that they will come to an agreement. But, as you know, we are going to be unemployed come July 1. So we have to wait and see.”

However, Warner also mentioned that CA has not approached the players till now. They have written a couple of emails but that is about it. The board has not engaged with its contracted players.

Bangladesh captain Mashrafe Mortaza has won the toss and elected to bat first in a Group A encounter in the 2017 edition of the ICC Champions Trophy at the Oval in London. Bangladesh have one change in their lineup, bringing in off-spinner Mehedi Hasan. Australia have also opted to bring in a spinner in Adam Zampa instead of John Hastings.

Australia start the match as firm favourites despite a subdued performance against their Trans-Tasman rivals New Zealand, in a game in which rain saved their blushes. Bangladesh though will be no pushovers as the contest against favourites England suggests, where they pushed the home side to their limit. Australia will thus have to be on their guards as any complacency could lead to a major upset leading to them being knocked out of the tournament. A loss for Bangladesh will also lead to them being knocked out. So this is an enticing contest and whoever loses will have to pack their bags for an early flight out of England.

ustralian captain Steve Smith had no hesitation in slamming his bowlers after a lucky escape last night against New Zealand at Edgbaston in the 2nd Champions Trophy game of 2017. After losing the toss, Australia conceded 291 runs in 45 overs in what was eventually a wash-out, with both teams earning 1 point each. Even though Australian bowling wasn’t all that great but Steve Smith tore into them in the post-match conference.

“We obviously still had some batters in the shed that can certainly play when you need to be chasing a total like that. But probably certainly would have preferred to be in New Zealand’s position when we came off the end there. We still had a lot of work to do and they’ve got a quality bowling attack as well. So we perhaps got away with one there”

The highly anticipated encounter of Group A of the 2017 ICC Champions Trophy between Trans-Tasman rivals Australia and New Zealand at Edgbaston in Birmingham was abandoned due to heavy rains. Only New Zealand’s innings of 46 overs and 8.3 overs of Australia’s batting was possible before the organizers took a call of abandoning the match.

It is a repeat of the 2013 edition as even on that occasion the match between Australia and New Zealand had to be called off at the same venue due to rain. Despite the frequent interruptions, the spectators in the stadium got to witness a batting masterclass by New Zealand captain Kane Williamson. He scored a brilliant 100 off 97 deliveries, propelling New Zealand to a total of 291 all out. It was indeed after Williamson’s wicket, that New Zealand endured a collapse, else a 325 total seemed like a given.

In the Trans-Tasman encounter between Australia and New Zealand, New Zealand won the toss and elected to field first. Kane Williamson’s decision was spot on as he led from the front with a brilliant century to propel New Zealand to a score of 291 all out.

Twitter applauded New Zealand and Williamson’s efforts as they put up a competitive score on the board. Special praise was also reserved for Josh Hazlewood who produced a stunning display of fast bowling picking up six wickets on a flat wicket. Here are some of the best reactions.

New Zealand captain Kane Williamson has won the toss and elected to bat first in match two in a Group A encounter in the 2017 edition of the ICC Champions Trophy in Edgbaston, Birmingham. Kane Williamson says that he’s confident that New Zealand can put some runs on board and defend it down. Birthday boy, Steve Smith says that Stoinis, Zampa, Pattinson misses out and John Hastings gets a game.

Shane Warne with the pitch report, says, “Even cover of grass, it’s really hard. Expect the fast bowlers to get a lot of bounce and carry.”

ustralia will take on New Zealand in a heavyweight contest in Edgbaston, Birmingham to determine who takes home the title of being the dominant team in the Trans-Tasman region. Matches between the two side always promise to be intense encounters with this match having the added bonus of being the re-match of the final of the 2015 World Cup in Melbourne. A lot has changed since then in both teams with the premier batsmen in world cricket; Steve Smith and Kane Williamson taking over the leadership responsibilities of both the sides.

Australia along with England are the pre-tournament favourites for a lot of analysts on the back of their explosive batting line-up and a world class bowling lineup. New Zealand though have a host of dangerous all-rounders in their line-up, who could spoil the party for Australia. There remains a realistic chance, depending on the conditions that Australia for the first time will unleash the fearsome pace quartet of Mitchell Starc, James Pattinson, Pat Cummins and Josh Hazlewood in international cricket. If they choose to do so, New Zealand will have quite a task on their hands.

Australian fast bowler Mitchell Johnson was never the one to shy away from having a few words with the batsmen while bowling for Australia. Now it seems though that Johnson has carried that aggression off the field slamming the Australian Cricket Board for not heeding the demands of the cricketers. Cricket Australia and the Australian players have been involved in a nasty dispute with the Australian board threatening to not pay the players.

Many big players such has David Warner has already spoken out against the board and now Mitchell Johnson has joined in the chorus. Johnson tweeted out:

David Warner, Australia’s vice-captain across all formats has come up with an astonishing statement in regards to the ongoing dispute between Cricket Australia and Australian Cricketers’ Association. In what turned out to be blunt response to the earlier threat posted by James Sutherland where the CA chief executive said that the players will find themselves unemployed if the ACA did not accept the outline of the board’s current pay offer, Warner told The Age that the players are united in regards to any attempt to break the current MOU(Memorandum of Understanding.

The winner of the ICC Champions Trophy in England will pocket home a cool $2.2 million after the ICC announced the prize money for the tournament. The runner-up of the tournament will take home $1.1 million and the total prize pool of the tournament is $4.5 million.

A media release by the ICC quoted, “The upcoming ICC Champions Trophy in England and Wales from 1-18 June carries a total prize money of $4.5 million with the winner of the eight-team tournament taking home a cheque of $2.2 million, the International Cricket Council announced today. The eighth edition of the tournament sees an increase of $500,000 in prize money from the 2013 edition, which too was played at the three venues being used this time – Cardiff Wales Stadium, Edgbaston and The Oval.”

Former Australian captain Michael Clarke has predicted a final between India and Australia in the 2017 edition of the ICC Champions Trophy to be played in England. He has also predicted that the match will be a close encounter and hopes that Australia ends up winning the match by 1 run.

Speaking to the media in Kolkata, Clarke when asked to predict the results of the ICC Champions Trophy said, “I am backing India and Australia to play the final and hope Australia win by one run.”

South African one-day captain AB de Villiers revealed in an interesting tale that how Ricky Ponting had snubbed him after the Australian had reached a century and de Villiers had went over to congratulate him. de Villiers further revealed that the same incident led to him gaining a lot of respect for Australian pace legend Glenn McGrath.

The incident happened when South Africa were touring Australia in 2006. Ricky Ponting had just scored a century and de Villiers went over to congratulate Ricky Ponting during the break and Ponting snubbed the young South African by giving him a dismissive stare. de Villiers told ESPN Cricinfo, “It happened when I was new to international cricket. Ponting had just hit a century and, during the break, I tapped him on the shoulder and congratulated him. He looked at me, shook his head and turned away in a dismissive way.”

On this day in 2003, Brian Lara led West Indies made history by defeating Steve Waugh’s Australia as they chased down the total of 418, which on that date, became the highest chasing total in the test cricket.

The visitors, Australia, were coming on the back of three consecutive victories over West Indies in the four-match test series and came onto the front foot in the final game as well.

Registering a mere total of 240 runs on the board in the first inning, the home side had an advantage at their disposal, but the bowling brilliance of the Kangaroos restricted them to the same total. In the second inning though, the Aussies showed no mercy as both Justin Langer and Matthew Hayden scored their tons and Australia boarded a massive total of 242 runs without losing any wicket.

Former Australian captain Ricky Ponting and come out in praise of Kolkata Knight Riders fast bowler Nathan Coulter-Nile claiming that the Australian selectors should still keep him in mind while selecting their squads in the future. People have forgotten about the existence of Coulter-Nile after he has had a couple of injury-prone years in Australian domestic cricket but he has mounted a brilliant comeback in the IPL for Kolkata Knight Riders.

Ricky Ponting believes that selectors should not forget about him and he should back-up the fearsome pace quartet of Mitchell Starc, James Pattinson, Pat Cummins and Josh Hazlewood in all forms of cricket. Ponting speaking to Cricket.com.au said, “He’s a highly-talented player and he’s probably someone who’s been a little bit forgotten in Australian cricket because he’s been injured so much. We didn’t see him at all last season domestically, but the year before that we’d seen him in the Australian one-day and T20 teams and he was on the fringe of playing some Test cricket as well.”

Big-hitting Chris Lynn was Thursday ruled out of Australia’s Twenty20 series against Sri Lanka with the injured batsman replaced by the Big Bash League’s (BBL) leading run-scorer Ben Dunk.

Lynn was a dominant force for Brisbane Heat in this summer’s BBL but was under a selection cloud for international duties with ongoing neck concerns.

He aggravated the injury at training last week.

“Chris will be seeing a specialist later this week and from there we will have a better understanding of the ongoing management, along with the return to play timeframes,” Australian team physiotherapist Kevin Sims said.
